PC Moment: Still going strong after three decades, the way-out-west bash drew a cowboy-clad crowd of close to 2,000, who contributed to the evening that raised $2.2 million for the American Cancer Society. Heading up the effort for VICTORY, a special fundraising arm of the American Cancer Society, were ball chairs Cindi Colvin, Denise Leisten, and Tammy Norman. To date, VICTORY has raised a whopping $46,400,000 to fund cancer research. So it was with no small amount of pride that VICTORY’s Betty DuBose and American Cancer Society’s Gary Reedy welcomed guests.

As is tradition, the evening diversions included the popular pig races, Vegas style gaming tables, midway games, a wine pull and a jewelry pull featuring Kendra Scott designs. Strumming their guitars for the generous crowd were Adam Hood, who performed at the VIP party, and Holly Williams and Grammy Award winner Dwight Yoakam who kept the dance floor boot scootin’ packed.

Fueling all those cattle barons and baronesses was Tony’s catering which provided sweet pepper stuffed avocados, crispy oyster tostadas and Tony’s prime beef chili station while Hugos dished up chile relleno de pollo, tamales de puerco and enchiladas de falda de res. Appealing to the universal sweet tooth was Mostly Chocolate & Catering which lavished guests with paté a choux, coconut panna cotta, and chocolate mousse.
